About this title: Today, noise is considered the curse of the information age, but Kosko claims that not all noise is bad. Debunking this and many other commonly held beliefs about noise, the author gives readers a vivid sense of how deeply noise permeates both the world around us and within us.

"This was quite a fascinating read and I learned (in theory, I promptly forgot most of it) a ton about noise and signals and all that stuff I never bothered to study before. It's a well written book that doesn't scare you with the maths, sciences, ee, and whatever else was inside. I found the quotes at the start of each chapter the most fascinating."
